Caricature Editorial cartooning Profiles

Cartoonist Profiles: Ron Hill

Ron Hill has been a comic artist (caricature quick-sketch entertainment, freelance humorous and fantasy/science fiction illustration work, and graphic design work) since 1983. At the end of the last century Ron began a career as an editorial cartoonist. From The Ron Hill LinkedIn page:

In 1999 I began providing editorial cartoons to The Chagrin Valley Times and the Solon Times. Since 2014, that has increased to my current output of six weekly newspapers, with a different editorial commentary cartoon in each publication. The other four newspapers are The Geauga Times Courier, West Life, The North Ridgevill Press and The Press (of Avon). In 2008, I was awarded 1st place in Ohio for Best Single Editorial Cartoon in a Non-Daily Newspaper by the Cleveland Press Club.

The Chagrin Valley Times today ran a Ron Hill profile (or here) by Michelle Collins about go-karts, teaching art, and Doc Savage, but mostly about his comic art, caricaturing, and editorial cartooning.

The Solon Historical Society hosted one of its own history makers last week as Solon resident Ron Hill, political cartoonist, caricature artist, illustrator, art director and all around freelance creator, offered a journey down his artistic road for a full house of historical society members and friends in Solon.

Mr. Hill, who has served as The Times’ very own political cartoonist since the 1990s, said he knew from a young age that he could draw.
